B. MEs, MERs, and Mars
Bruce Rux, to whom we
have already referred, points out that the word “mer”, meaning
“place of ascension” is one term that ancient Egyptians gave to
their pyramids, a meaning associating them, once again, with the
heavens.502 The same, Rux
notes, can also be said of the Sumerian MEs, or power objects. But
Rux adds one of those “details” referred to earlier. “The Sumerian
Enoch’s name, ‘Enmeduranki,’” contains the root DUR-AN-KI, which as
noted previously, means the “bond heaven-earth,”, and thus the
Sumerian Enoch’s name “meant ‘Ruler whose Me connects Heaven and
Earth.’”503 But this is not
all. There are peculiar, and detailed, connections to the Red
Planet, to Mars, and to the god of war who rules it. To see how,
one must journey away from Mesopotamia and Egypt, out across the
Atlantic, to North and South America and to some very intriguing
native American Indian traditions.
